Future support to developing public-private partnerships (PPPs) in Indonesia would benefit from a clearer identification of the obligations, incentives, and cost-sharing arrangements among government agencies. A more thorough political economy analysis will identify constraints.

Report Date:
Lesson
The DMF for the Infrastructure Project Development Facility (IPDF) was not adequate to assess IPDF’s performance as an institution, with targets that were limited to the number of PPP projects. It should have included measures on the level of private sector investment in infrastructure in general, and specifically on PPP projects, together with some regional comparisons.

It is important that ADB and development partners, in general, understand not only the formal but also informal institutional settings, particularly how government officials at different levels interact. A more thorough political economy analysis will identify constraints.

The capacity of local governments may vary, hence, particular attention on capacity building is likely to be necessary at this level.

Lesson
A well-functioning project steering committee could have played a role in identifying and addressing the consultant selection issues at an earlier time. It could have also identified issues relating to agencies’ capacity to engage in PPP preparation.

Lesson
The PPP model can help finance relatively large infrastructure projects that directly increase export and government revenue. This approach is particularly relevant in developing countries with weak private sector participation in infrastructure and which lack the capacity for commercial borrowing because of debt sustainability considerations. Some examples of countries in a similar situation are the Kyrgyz Republic, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Nepal, and Tajikistan where large hydropower potential can be developed to increase their power exports using the PPP model.

Lesson
Since capacity building components of projects are rarely on the critical path to project completion, such as the institutional reform and corporate governance improvement component of this project, capacity building could be undertaken as a stand-alone technical assistance to avoid implementation delays caused by other components of the project.
